It has been confirmed by the Property Management Section of the Department that the site of the hall on Glenaan Road in Larkhill, Dublin 9 is not in the ownership of the Department. The Department's records indicate that the three primary schools in Larkhill share the facility in question. The entire site on which the three schools are located is vested for a period of 99 years from 1945. The Lease simply guarantees that the school property, which is built mainly with grant aid from the Department, is retained for educational use.
A technical site visit of the hall to which the Deputy refers was recently carried out by the Department as part of an overall refurbishment project for the schools located on the site.
